This is the underside of the bridge in Florence, Oregon that crosses the Siuslaw River. This scene can be found in almost any art gallery in Florence's Old Town, as it has been painted and photographed many times.

Very nice how you made this utilitarian concrete structure take on the feeling of a cathedral. The reflection is a nice asset.

It is very reminiscent of a cathedral and the calm waters and reflection add to the feeling of serenity and peacefulness. You handled exposure well to bring out the darker structures.

This is pretty cool, Allen! I think it works as is, but personally i think it might even be stronger if you cropped both sides, so it is just the bridge and reflection. That would be more abstract, and a lot more weird (i like weird though) :wavey:
